My art focuses on popular culture including video games, current events, violence, retro culture, the internet, and mass communication. I am interested in how contemporary society has adapted to technology and how everything is interconnected through digital means. My art has evolved into mixed media collages that I manipulate with paint. I also create digital prints and internet art.
